Yesterday, HHS issued a draft interim policy that opened a safer, regulated path for peptides including BPC-157 and TB-500. This is a big step forward for access to innovation for more people, and over the last 2 years, we’ve been investing in the domestic infrastructure necessary for this exact moment.
With Peptides+, clinician-led protocols built by the experts in the field plus a world-class infrastructure comes together in the one of the only companies that can deliver quality access to these newly eligible treatments. Through our US based facilities, we’ll be able to offer eligible customers access to the newly allowed peptides made 100% from start to finish in the US, with ongoing clinical support and an entirely US-based supply chain they can trust.
Get an early look at what’s coming and sign up to be among the first in line to be in the know as we begin to roll this out: hims.com/peptides-plus

🚨🚨 New category Comming soon! 🚨🚨 Peptides+. Really excited about the look and feel of this one. 💪🏼🔥 $HIMS hims.com/peptides-plus

At Hims & Hers, we’re encouraged to see the administration make meaningful progress towards expanding access to peptide therapies through this draft interim policy. As more and more Americans seek these treatments, it is critical to have regulated channels, clinician oversight, quality standards, and transparency - none of which exist in the current gray market.
Our goal has always been to define what responsible access to care looks like. We have spent years building the infrastructure we need in our very own US-based peptide manufacturing facility, developing dosing protocols with clinical experts, and setting up frameworks to better understand these emerging treatments.
We'll keep working to bring these treatments within reach of those who need them, with more news to come soon.

Launched a new sku for testosterone today. Really happy with how it looks 💪🏼 $HIMS

Looking for someone who makes exceptional creative work, gets obsessive about why it works, and builds on that intuition with AI + code.
Come be my creative counterpart at Infinite Garden.
DM something you made + the creative thinking behind it

Healthcare built for real life requires a complete reinvention of the current experience. Not an add-on feature or a retrofit. Starting today, we’re launching a fundamental reimagining of what it means to get people closer to feeling great.
@wearehers weight loss members are the first ones to feel it today, and we’re planning to bring it to all of our members soon.
Watch this space. We’re just getting started.
In healthcare, AI usually sits outside of care. It can answer a question, but it doesn't know your treatment plan or your doctor.
Today, that changes for @wearehers weight loss members. Our new doctor-led, AI-native care experience puts women, their providers, Care Teams, and AI in one ongoing conversation. This is intelligence embedded at every step of the care experience – personally tailored to track progress over time and help women reach their goals on their own terms.

Love this @buzzfeed conversation with @dankenger. Brilliant design has the ability to power deeper connections with our customers, so it’s at the center of everything we do.
An experience that people can trust and actually enjoy transforms health. Our in-house creative team is showing the world what’s possible when you bring that to millions. 🚀✨

we’re not really “designing” right now,
we’re just constantly switching contexts trying to not get left behind
every week there’s a new tool claiming to be the future → paper, pencil, magicpatterns, magicpath… now noon shows up with $44M and changes the narrative again
so instead of going deep, everyone’s just sampling everything
trying prompts here, generating screens there, tweaking in figma, jumping to code, back to AI again
half the industry is already inside code editors
the other half is still figuring out which tool is even worth committing to
fomo is doing more damage than we realise
because depth needs stability
and right now the stack itself is unstable
so no one is mastering anything
everyone is just trying to be early
eventually this will settle and a default will emerge
till then, we’re all just beta testers pretending to have a workflow 👀
Nothing reveals quality of thinking like execution. We all gotta evolve but PMs will end up needing a full rebrand if this is where we’re headed
I don’t know exactly what’s going on here, but it does feel AI-related. Unlike PM and eng, which started growing in 2024 (two years post-ChatGPT), design didn’t. If I had to venture a theory, I’d say that because AI is allowing engineers to move so quickly, there’s less opportunity—and less desire—to involve the traditional design process.
That said, you’d think design would become a differentiator as more products compete for attention. Something to think about for your company! We’ll keep watching this trend and AI’s impact on org design more generally.
One interesting observation we made when we went a level deeper: the ratio of demand for PMs vs. designers has flipped. In mid-2023, we went from more open designer roles to more open PM roles. And ever since, PM demand has been pulling away (currently 1.27x). This will be another trend to monitor, in terms of how AI is reshaping org design.

We founded Hims & Hers to help more people feel great. To disrupt a broken healthcare system and create a new model of health where innovators work together to deliver access to care that actually serves everyday people.
We align how we operate with where we see major growth opportunities and in a way that allows us to meet our customers where they are (and where they want to go). That’s why, later this month, Hims & Hers customers will have access to FDA-approved medications from @novonordisk as a part of a strategic collaboration.
The weight loss landscape is completely different today than it was when we first entered the category. FDA-approved GLP-1 treatments are now more accessible, with greater affordability and more flexible dosing options and form factors. These market changes are shifting consumer demand towards these branded medications.
We’re moving our model forward another step with this strategic shift in our US weight loss business. This evolution will make us the largest global consumer health platform providing access to more affordable, approved medications.
We will continue to innovate across our platform, keeping what’s best for consumers as our North Star. There's challenging, important work in front of us, and I've never been more excited about the path ahead. Just like we always do, Hims & Hers will rise to meet the moment.

✌️ It was a solid run at Block. From the first real design system for Cash, to the biggest redesign in company history, I'm proud of what we built.
Being picky about whats next, but DM me if you think you've got something cool brewing.
Figma Console MCP is magic.
3,900+ variables
15,000+ tokens
9 collections
1+ decade refining this grid system
So many responsive permutations I couldn't have ever done it until now.
@Figma I need that slot component access! lol

Tonight, when our ad airs during the Big Game, we will continue a much-needed conversation around what healthcare should look and feel like in America: affordable, proactive, personalized.
When we start hard conversations, we expect challenges along the way. But we won't ever stop advocating for better until the system becomes better for everyone.
